- Summary:
- "Janet Dawson (born 1935, Sydney) is an artist who refuses to be bound by rules. A key figure in the Melbourne and Sydney art scenes in the 1960s, Dawson was a pioneer of Australian abstraction. Over six decades, she has moved between figuration, formalism and realism, driven by an immense curiousity about material existence and states of the natural world. This monograph traces the extraordinary creative vision of a major Australian artist." -- Back cover
